CENTER CITY (WTXF/AP) - Philadelphia police are continuing to search for a motive in the "target specific" package explosion that left a man injured. Investigators say they have ruled out the incident as an act of hate.

James Alden, who is in his 60s, was hurt in the explosion in his Center City kitchen at about 4am Monday when police say he "opened up a package that he suspected was medication that he typically receives in the mail," but police say it that was not the cast.

Instead, the contents of the package exploded on Alden, injuring both of his hands, his face and his upper body.

Just before noon, police reported, "At this time, it has been determined that the package was a device; the intent was for the package to explode when it was opened. Our bomb squad is currently working on the specifics of the device. The motive is unknown; it has not been determined why the complainant may have been targeted."

The victim suffered injuries and bleeding to both of his hands, and also his chest. He never lost consciousness and FOX 29’s Steve Keeley reported he even went to the bathroom to start cleaning himself up. He’s in the hospital, in stable condition.

Small said the victim does get inhalers delivered regularly for his asthma.

All people in the building who’d been evacuated have been allowed back.
